AN EXCERPT FROM:
FOOD FOR THOUGHT 11, PART FOUR-C (DECEMBER 2, 2006) "OUR UNPARDONABLE ENEMIES, THE LEFT GATEKEEPERS" (IN THIS EPISODE, ARIANNA HUFFINGTON TELLS THE TRUTH [AND DOESN'T EVEN KNOW IT!!])
..........·..........·..........·..........·..........·..........·
FROM
PART THREE: "The Truth" ..........And yet, whatever that case may be, it doesn't change our subject here and how. And that's because the great point for us here, for us now, isn't whether the Bushiscti and Cheneyiscti are fruitcakes or not fruitcakes, but the question is whether they are treasonous and criminal or not treasonous and criminal. No, the point for us here, now, is that whatever the Bushiscti may or may not be clinically, the unalterable fact remains that the left gatekeepers—which now include the Democratic party—in their aid and abetment, are exactly the same as the Bushiscti. ..........If one side lies, so does the other. If one side "denies reality," so does the other. If one side ignores "facts," even though "facts are stubborn things," so does the other. ..........And the significance? Well, the significance, according, implicitly, to Arianna Huffington, is that both sides are "sick." I tend to agree with her—even though she doesn't know that she's even said it. And the additional significance? The additional significance of this "sickness"—and the guilt falls every bit as heavily on the left gatekeepers as it does or ever could on the Bushiscti—the additional significance of the sickness is that it's "potentially lethal to the well-being of our country." [my emphasis] ..........And, good nongod above, can you ever bet safely on that. "This is the imposthume of much wealth and peace," we remember Hamlet saying, "that inward breaks and shows no cause without why the man died." The membranous sac of poison that is the crime of 9/11—that membranous sac of vile toxins has got to be removed from its hidden place deep inside the body politic or it will burst, poison the blood itself, and the entire being necessarily and consequently die. ..........And haste, great, great haste, is essential, because that ugly sac of lies, fraud, purulence, hypocrisy, and sheer diabolic fascistic-style grabbing for hegemony is already leaking out its poisons, and the body has already lost one arm (habeas corpus), a lower leg (torture), one eye and half its hearing (FISA spying), and the coherence of its central nervous system (arrest without cause, incarceration without limit). ..........The country is dying. The cause is known, the cure available, the surgeons standing by. Impeach. Prosecute for the crimes of 9/11. Punish those guilty. And then begin the long hard work of recuperation: Start the nation all over again; set it once more on a foundation of laws, not of the sheerest treason, thievery, and deceit; restore its Constitution, all but stolen already by the hideous disease that may yet kill us all (see Tarpley on this subject).
..........·..........·..........·..........·..........·..........· FROM PART FOUR: "The Truth, Again" ..........Consider the Democrats, who, less than a heartbeat after the recent elections, declared impeachment "not on the table." What conceivable moral authority can such a political party as that one ever have or ever gain or ever hope to achieve if it chooses to remain collaborator to the greatest criminal establishment in the world; rather than justice or truth, chooses complicity in criminal and treasonous attacks on the nation and on its people; chooses the sheerest and most corrupting complicity in murder, robbery, mendacity, treason, power-grabbing, fraudulent wars, defense not of the nation but of the oligarchy alone, all accompanied by the most obscenely cavalier waste of lives by the hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of thousands? ..........What kind of political party, covering up and thereby making itself complicit in crimes of those dimensions, could such a party conceivably be? Still, that's what the Democrats have already announced with the utmost clarity—through the voice of Nancy Pelosi herself and the instant capitulation of John Conyers—that they have already chosen to be. That is to say, a party of fraud, thuggery, and the deepest, most treasonous criminality—identical to the party of fraud, thuggery, and the deepest, most treasonous criminality that, until this past seventh of November, held the majority. ..........Big difference. ..........And in this way you can see the extraordinary importance of exposing the culpability of the left gatekeepers, those who alone in the media who could have chosen otherwise but instead have taken it upon themselves not to rebel against their Pelosian owners, not to do their real work of reporting upon and exposing the truth, but, instead, to submit to the malevolent enemy itself, to work instead to silence the fact of that enemy's greatest of crimes, to labor as journalists, reporters, writers, editors, managers on behalf of the criminals themselves—in short, to be quislings. ..........Next time, we'll take a look at a few of them at work. .......... ............................................................—Eric Larsen ............................................................—December 2, 2006 ..........
